G           G7         G                G7
If you're listening to this song
G            G7          G                G7      D7     F6  D7
You may think the chords are going wrong
F6              D7  F6
But they're not
 D7                     C7
He just wrote it like that.

When you're listening late at night
You may think the band are not quite right
But they are, They just play it like that

    D                  Am               F           H7
It doesn't really matter what chords I play
 E7                  Am                 E7
What words I say or time of day it is
C            G         D     D7
As it's only a Northern song.

It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
When it's only a Northern song.

If you think the harmony
Is a little dark and out of key
You're correct, Is nobody there
E       C               G         D
and I told you is no one there.
